This has been our busiest
gleaning season ever!
We gleaned over 700
pounds of green beans,
800 pounds of corn, and
2,000 pounds of peaches.
There is more to come: pears,
plums, and apples.
And
we need your help!
We need your help at the big
gleaning event at Sycamore
Spring Orchard on Saturday
October 17,
2009. We will glean from
8:30 – 11:30 am, rain or shine.
Click the
buttons below for
directions to the orchard,
suggestions for what to wear and
bring, and a medical liability
form. All gleaners must complete
this liability form, even if
they gleaned last year.
If you would like a weekend
experience, please consider
joining this year’s Harvest of
Hope Retreat in Palmyra (at Camp
Seltzer) on Oct 16-18. During
the retreat you'll learn about
hunger in the U.S., study the
Bible's call to action, and
glean with us on Saturday. It’s
not too late to sign-up for the
retreat. I highly recommend it.
